About the Work and the Artists: 

Local BIPOC creatives, Alanda Gregory, Yara Lopez and Hieyler Talley, joined local sculptor Gail Chavenelle to conceive and design Dance Diversity, forming a 4-woman team that collaborated during the COVID-19 pandemic to create a joyful work that expresses multiple cultures and voices.
